I never thought about that. That is actually very brilliant! Sandbox transformers!

What was that about not wanting too much orange? :lol:

Well then you will be happy to see that none of the two newly revealed titan hero toys are repaints

Logical fallacies in your argument aside...

I'd settle for a few more that ARE 1/3/5-steps! Or Legion! Aside from the Mini-Cons, there are a grand total of FIVE Decepticons getting toys in this line. And only two of them, Steeljaw and Thunderhoof, have the "metal furry" look that makes the RiD 2015 Decepticons different (Megatronus and Fracture are normal robots, and Underbite has a beast mode instead of a robot mode like Sky Lynx or the G1 Cassettes did). There are so many interesting designs and we're getting nothing for any of them. I want a Springload, damn it.

K-Mart still sells transformers? News to me, the only one still open in my area hasn't restocked since before Christmas.

I hope that actually comes through.

I wouldn't mind a Terrashock either, or a Ped for that matter. Or most of them, really...

Perhaps even a Scowl, though admittedly he's not really in the "metal furry" category.

Which Decepticons got Earth Modes - Not very many ?

Perhaps those ones should be prioritised along with ones who feature in more than one episode.

If that already covers the ones we have had so far then it's time to broaden it out - I can't say what's best though as I've have not seen the show enough to know who is who in that regard.

I don't have time for a proper post, but I spotted the wave 5 legion figures at a couple Targets in south Louisiana today.

Ultra Magnus and Patrol Mode Strongarm.

Keep your optics peeled if these are on your want list.

If I was a kid, I'd use that Drift as a stand-in for Unicron. That's...the best I can come up with with regard to praise.

Anybody in the mood for some Sightings news? Fellow Seibertronians Carytheone and ScottyP have found the latest Robots in Diguise Legion figures:

Carytheone wrote:Spotted RID Legion Ultra Magnus at Target in Baton Rouge, LA for $5.99

Spotted Patrol Mode Strongarm at another Target. She was probably at the other Target, but I didn't know this deco was a thing.

Target in Slidell, La for $5.99

Technically, isnt the only decepticon with an Earth mode One Step Fracture? Because there is no indication that any decepticon scanned an earth vehicle once they escaped. I mean fixit has them all in his computer from the time they were on his ship and they look the same as we see them when they are on earth. So technically none of them on the show have earth modes.

I'd like to point out that I was wrong to imply in my email to news staff that Alpine Strike Sideswipe is out. Looks like Target is getting Wave 5 cases, and AS Sideswipe is (so far) only in Wave 4 cases.

It also looked like the Target I was at today had skipped Wave 5 of the one-steps (which has the new Gold Armor Grimlock and Patrol Mode Strongarm) and went straight to Wave 6 which is all repacks of various Wave 1-4 things.
